Trouble at the Theatre.

The Uncle Toms Cabin Company
drew like a sticking plaster Tuesday
night in the gallery and an immense
crowd was jammed into that portion
of the Opera House, being composed
mostly Of negroes. just as the cur
tain went up Joe Mclaughlin, a
young coon who has frequently been
mentioned in connection with the
race for the penitentiarv and who is
well qualified for the place, took a
position near the railing in front Of
the crowd with cigar in his mouth
and defled the house policeman I. T.
McCamy who told him TO take a seat.
McCamy started TO take him away
by force and when Mclaughlin
showed fight promptly used his club
on him. Quite connection was
kicked up and another negro was
seen to draw pistol, but Constable
Wiley and Policemen Ennis and
Twyman, who werein the auditorium
rushed up into the gallery before any
further harm beyond few knock
downs had been done. The negro
who drew the pistol escaped recogni-
tion and was not arrested. The sight
of weapon in the crowded gallery
caused almost panic and many loud
ordinations of terror from the wo-
men and tho crowd made a frantic
rush for the door, but the prompt ac-
ton of the officers quickly restored
order. Mclaughlin was taken out
and the curtain, which had been low
cred. went up again and the play
went ahead as If nothing had hap
pened.

PARIS, Aug. IA dispatch from Zanzi
bar has been received at the foreign Office
which says: 'Henry NJ. Stanley, the ex
plorer, has been murdered by natives, aftel
having been deserted by his escort"
LONDON, Aug. 17.-Neither the foreign
Office nor the Emin Bey Relief committee has
received any news regarding the alleged mas
saere of Stanley. The officials at the foreign
office are surprised at the dispatch received
by the French government and say that if
news of Stanley's death has been received at
Zanzibar the British agent there has failed to
send it.
Sir Francis DeWinton, president of the
Emin Bey Relief committee, says that trust
worthy news of the Stanley expedition could
not possibly have been received at Zanzibar
SO soon after the arrival of the expedition at
the Aruwimi on June 18th.
LONDON, Aug. 19.-Letters have been re-
ceived here from Henry NJ. Stanley dated
June 18th at Gambuya, a village near the
rapids of the Aruwimi, reporting himself and
party all well.
